Any more news on the stage 3 please??

CaptMoto 29-10-09 20:25

We are not holding any news from you guys and as soon as DNA confirms availabilty and price to us we won't delay in making it public.

Meantime please understand that one of these has been sent to Kev in Australia for him to fit and take to the Dynometer to test and obtain dyno chart results so that everyone who will want to buy these Stage 3 filter will know exactly what to expect in power figures well documented by the expert who is Kev.

It goes without saying that I expect the cost of these filters to be not exactly cheap although nothing has been confirmed to me in writing from DNA but I have told Dino that the best thing to do before making a final announcement will be to at least provide concrete evidence of the benefit obtained by this filter and tested by an independent 3rd party, in this case Kev so that we will all know where we stand in anticipation.

Thanks for being patient

Thanks Capt
I to am not expecting them to be cheap but if it gives me 3 or 4 more hp i will be happy to spend the cash (but not to much please Dino)

DNA Stage 3 Air Box Kit for the XTX/R
 
Hi Guys,
Today we tested the first tuned XT 660 on the dyno, the result was very Good!
We mapped the bike using Dynojet tuning link and the data we used to fix the air/fuel ratio was unbelievable�:headbang:the next step is to install the stage 3 in a stock XT 660 with stock exhaust, this test will take place on Saturday 31/10.
On Monday afternoon we hope to be able to announce it officially, including photos and pricing.

Please be patient we are working very hard to offer to all of you that will choose to purchase the DNA S3 the absolute best kit available on the market!

I would like to thank all of you for your interest,

Best Regards

Dino Nikolaidis

Thanks for the reply Dino i look forward to seeing the results :respeck:

Guys there is quite a bit of work going on behind the scenes by DNA, they have tested the stage 3 on a modified XT & will also run dyno tests on a standard XT as well. I should have mine to test soon, I will run it on the dyno & post the results as a third party tester.

With any performance mod one needs to prove the gains, this is what is happening at the moment, so not much longer to wait.

The DNA Stage 3 Air Box Kit first results!
 
9 Attachment(s)
Hi Guys,
Saturday evening I am back home after a busy and noisy day on the dyno!
Today we completed all the final tests concerning the DNA stage 3, we already had tested a modified XT 660 X (RAPTOR CYLINDER, PISTON & CAM) on Thursday�,
so we expected good results with the stock bike also.
The DNA Stage 3 Air Box Kit is designed to be used on highly tuned bikes that need a high flow of air; but what happens if we use it on a stock bike with a stock exhaust?
Can we offer it as a single choice for customers that will choose to stay with the stock exhaust and want to increase the power and torque of their bike?
If afterwards an open exhaust is added what is the result?
I hope the following presentation will answer all the above and more, for all of you that are considering the DNA S3.
The workflow:
a) The stock bike is tested on the dyno to achieve all the base readings, Power-Torque-A/F Ratio.
b) The stock air box removed and the DNA S3 installed.
c) The bike now is tested with ONLY the DNA S3 no fueling modifications.
d) At this point we add a PC3 USB and map it using Dynojet Tuning Link and dyno the bike again to see the result.
e) Now we install a set of Akrapovic Open Slip On�s and dyno the bike again�..?
Attached you can find the Power and Torque graphs.
Photos of the bike on the dyno and the DNA S3.
YouTube links with videos.

a) ALL STOCK XT 660 X

b) STOCK XT 660 X & ONLY THE DNA S3

c) XT 660 X DNA S3 & PC3 & T2NE MAPPING & AKRAPOVIC EX
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsGZ1rylx3k

Note: that the S3 we tested was missing the side covers, but it makes no difference because the side covers are completely open (perforated) to allow the air to flow unrestricted.

Photos of the complete kit ready to ship and pricing, hopefully, we will post on Monday or Tuesday as we are still waiting some parts to come in from the powder coating.

At this point I will not add any comments or explanations, instead I expect you to send me your comments and opinion.

Thank you all again for keeping us motivated, with your interest.

Best regards,

Dino Nikolaidis

Looks good to me mate :thumbsup[1]:

Are you going to have to emboss or print with "For Race Use Only" as per some pathetic EU regulations or will it be legend-free (except for your logos of course)?

A big thank you from me and I am sure from many forum members for all your hard work and development for a relatively small market (at the moment). With the addition of a re-worked throttle body, drop-in high compression piston & maybe cam and PCv and tuning I think you may be close to the ultimate XT660 engine without significant and costly engineering work to increase capacity.

ps. Will you include the PCiii map with the device or donate it to the site via Kev - PLEASE?
